    Always found a bit weird the way gimp saves images. “Export” makes sense somehow but still feels weird, like if it didn’t want to hear about the thing you’ve created anymore ever.

      Because when you press save, it saves the gimp project. It makes sense, because you’re working on a project in gimp, and that project has to be converted to a different format for use as an image.

      It’s like expecting MS Word to print the page when you click save.

      It sounds like my use of ODF for text editing and then I export it to PDF for when I send it to others. One being the mold or sorts I make changes to and one being the end product.
